Song: “The Seed” (Tune: “Mary Had a Little Lamb”)
I’m a little planted seed, (crouch into a ball)
Planted seed, planted seed.
I’m a little planted seed,
This is how I grow.
Additional verses:
See the rain come sprinkling down…
Sunshine comes down through the trees…
Now I am a growing bud…
See my petals open up…

One potato, two potatoes,
Three potatoes, four.
Five potatoes, six potatoes,
Seven potatoes,
More!

A Dog is what I found! WOOF – WOOF – WOOF!
